Hmm - 'True Faith was, possessively, renamed 'Boo Faith' and released as an
A-side some years back. What I'd *really* like to hear is The Boos' cover of
'4st 7lb' from The Holy Bible. It exists. We are told.

Speaking of movies swiping concepts - I had a cat, now sadly departed, who
was christened, in 1982, Beethoven. For a decade, to the world, Beethoven
was a cat. [OK so he was also a strong contender for the position of finest
composer who has ever lived, but that's irrelevent.] And then some Hollywood
hob-nob decides to make Beethoven a dog! I nearly sued.....

>respect to the legless of the world, i hope to join you all tonight.

Anyone seen 'The Evil Dead'? I shall be watching it tonight. My friend says
he's been having nightmares about it. I look forward to it.
